Bah, pesky MOUS/A+ cert types. I at least expected them to be pilfering
the accounts of wealthy clients from their home computers. Whatever happened
to the evil in the world?

It's the unimaginative of the world that don't see the opportunities for
blackmail around them.
But then again, if they're successful at the same (and I would expect it
of maids... it's an old tradition) it sure as hell isn't going to make
the papers. It would certainly explain the sudden interest in "computer
courses" as they put it in the article. A mere fourfold increase in
salary wouldn't be enough. ;)

Where do you think the M.I.L.F.[1] and the Sayyaf[2] are getting their
funding from since Osama and Saddam went underground..., kidnapping all
those fabulously wealthy tourists that visit the Phillipines?

You obviously don't get the same spam I do.

Indeed. An entire terrorist organization made of attractive women, that
would be different. "Bring 'em on," as Dubya sez.

You, too, can choose your method of execution when you are sentenced to death
for telling sexist jokes on television.

How would that eliminate the 419, automotive, golf, political, printer
toner, pyramid, real estate and religious spam?

That's OK. It may even be _good_, though it isn't quite up to the
G. W. Bush Memorial Pay Toilet, to be erected on Bush's grave --
before or after his death; it doesn't matter.

Another of my pet peeves is the use of random special characters in names,
e.g. SQL*Forms. I pronounce that one "squeal splat forms" - sort of sounds
like roadkill, doesn't it?

I'm unsure if I should be worried about how many characters I recognised
from webcomics I read regularly. Was fun picking them out though. Including
Opus.
